At the little shop of Terra Verde (Green Earth) on Daliani Street, one can find local Cretan products made by small producers. These include organic olive oil, honey, wine, herbs, and rusk bread. There are also products from co-operatives and worker-owned businesses from all over Greece such as pulses, pasta, and nuts, as well as coffee from the Zapatista communities of Chiapas, Mexico, and from Ecuador and Paraguay, tea from India, Vietnam, and South Africa, and yerba mate from Brazil.
Terra Verde is more than just a shop with exceptional products - it is a collective which supports an alternative, just ('fair') model of trade, far from exploitative affiliations, and contributes to the advancement of an economy which equally respects the environment, the producer and the consumer.
In choosing to purchase products from Terra Verde, you are choosing products of the highest quality while supporting an alternative and more equitable way of life. So, come along!
